I couldn't come back home until they opened the machine door from their side but I didn't care. I looked around and took a deep breath, I didn't know what was coming but it was the least of my concerns, I was charmed by the beauty of nature, there's no such thing as nature in earthsphere and I only saw it in what we call fictional historical books, movies, and old pictures, and now I had it in front of me, in front of my own eyes, I could see, smell, touch and here nature. I walked besides the lake, danced on top of the mountain even though I'm so bad at it, I sang standing on a rock in the middle of nowhere and then I remembered I had to see if this place was survivable so I walked into the woods and observed my surroundings. I went straight ahead and just looked to see if there was anything that could be harmful to us.
I ambled for 7 hours and then stopped by a tree to eat, I finished my portion and tried to get up but my feet were stuck on the ground, I looked down but I didn't see anything strange, I assumed it was that natural glue that they mention in the books, I removed my shoes and continued my research in socks. I enjoyed the beautiful view for another day and then decided to get back home. I had one portion of food left, I strolled back to the place where I first arrived, but this time it was different,it wasn't safe nor did it feel safe. I crossed path with a wolf, looked into its eyes and it looked back at me, I didn't feel alarmed at first, but then I had the reflex to run, so I did, I ran as fast as I could and it followed me, I climbed a tree knowing it won't be able to reach me and sat on a branch for hours until I felt like it cracked. I screamed in pain when I fell thankfully I wasn't harmed much, but I did feel something strange in my arm, I looked down at it and even if I didn't see it, I realized that the AI was damaged. I reached for a small tranchant branch next to me, opened up my arm in agony, I didn't look down at it until I felt the blood dripping on my body, I put my fingers into the wound and got the AI out, I took a deep breath that meant both relief and suffering, I hoped that they would know I'll still be alive, closed my eyes, breathed heavily, got up dripping blood on my way, I felt weak, fragile and unable to move, I moved as fast as I could wishing the dimension switch machine was opened but it wasn't, they thought I was dead, I was left alone in there.
